@katienotopoulos Never trust a story based on data they won't publish or a methodology they won't reveal.

@terrygtnguyen I tried Babel and found similar levels of cliché as you in Yellowface plus anachronisms, poorly explored themes, Harry Potter-level plotting, all the while wondering at the acclaim.

@OutbreakFest Earl Cardigan!

@PigsAndPlans @madlib Pretty much anything from Great Day.

Last wish: I wish I had two more wishes
And I wish they fixed the door to the Matrix, there's mad glitches
Spit so many verses sometimes my jaw twitches
One thing this party could use is more... ahem
Booze, put yourself in your own shoes

@yomilo these are your best beats

As you see I catch wreck on this Ruby Yacht life vessel
Master of ceremonies, bass and treble
Dialectic of ancient rebels, grew my locks accordingly

@SylvanEsso Think about how nice it would be if you were on tour in the UK... just sayin

[david price @davidprice]

@SylvanEsso No Rules Sandy gets better with each listen. Nick's excelled on the music, Amelia's voice flows and darts and sways.

Do some dates in the UK? please?

[david price @davidprice]

@tombreihan A bonus beat to the asterisk with as niche a reference as it gets. Nice.

@Mark_Mulligan It reads like it could have been published in 2006, not 2016. Intro says broadband has a big impact in content delivery...

#Xunlei SEC filing: 142m users of 'Xunlei Accelerator'; 4.6m VIP subscribers; index of over 5.8bn digital files. Big numbers.

Chinese streaming service QVOD could be facing a 260m yuan fine for video piracy http://t.co/lgeGY5tqZS

@joemullin True that files > 100MB didn't qualify for rewards but larger files were split into 100MB chunks - typical uploader behaviour.

[david price @davidprice]

Xunlei gets $300m funding w/out IPO. Still in an odd position: KanKan is legit but just how much revenue does the download / bt client make?
